About Metroid Prime Remastered

Prepare yourself for an unforgettable journey.

Samus Aran, a bounty hunter operating around the galaxy, is alerted to the presence of a damaged frigate orbiting the planet Tallon IV by the transmission of a distress call. After further examination, it was discovered that the ship was really a Space Pirate research vessel where horrifying genetic experiments with the unknown drug Phazon were being conducted. There, Samus has a confrontation with her archenemy Meta Ridley, whom she chases all the way to the surface of Tallon IV. It is entirely up to her to study the planet’s shadowy mysteries, discover its interrelated areas, and put a stop to the danger that Phazon poses to the cosmos as a whole.

This first-person adventure, which has received a lot of positive feedback, is now available with upgraded graphics, music, and control systems, among other improvements.

Equipment for the Game Hunter

Samus Aran, a fearsome bounty hunter who has been imbued with Chozo DNA and has been trained as a warrior, travels around the galaxy in search of wanted criminals.

During this expedition, Samus is equipped with a number of Chozo-created weapons and abilities, all of which are at her disposal.

Power Suit

The Power Suit is a sophisticated Chozo exoskeleton that has been adapted for use by Samus Aran. It has life-supporting capabilities and is an effective barrier against assault. Because it is constructed in a modular fashion, the Power Suit may have additional components, such as temperature resistance, Visors, and weaponry, added to it as required.

Samus Aran can assess the environment around her and interact with it with the use of the Power Suit’s a variety of user interfaces, which are known as Visors. These skills are signature powers of the Metroid Prime series. Samus may search through a collected database to learn more about things and foes with the use of the Scan Visor. Samus is able to observe her surroundings in new ways as a result of upgrades like as the Thermal Visor and the X-ray Visor.

Charge the Cannon

Samus’ primary attack method involves converting her bioenergy into a beam that may either be discharged quickly or charged up to produce a more powerful blow. It is possible for her armament to be significantly expanded with the use of upgrades such as electrified Wave Beams, explosive Missiles, and others. There are a lot of doors that can only be opened by using certain Arm Cannon skills.

Morph Ball Samus is able to morph into a Morph Ball, which has a diameter of about one meter, allowing her to roll through tight spaces and other difficult-to-access locations. The Morph Ball, much like the Power Suit, may be customized in several ways. There are a number of enhancements, such as the Bomb assault and the Boost Ball move, that may be implemented in order to make the performance better.

Discover in spooky solitary confinement

Discover the Space Pirates’ nefarious experiments as you travel across the many biomes of the planet Tallon IV and discover knowledge about the dangerous material that caused the world to be in ruins.

Reworked specifically for the Nintendo Switch

The first-person journey that Samus Aran embarks on sees increased success as a result of recent enhancements.

Sound and images that have been updated

Experience the timeless first-person adventure in a whole new light with high-definition images and music that has been updated while retaining its vintage feel.

Controls that are both new and traditional

Experience Tallon IV for the first time with contemporary dual-analog controls, as well as nostalgic configurations inspired by the first Metroid Prime game, which was released for the Nintendo GameCubeTM system, and the Metroid Prime: Trilogy titles, which were released for the Nintendo WiiTM system.

Options ranging widely in terms of difficulty

When playing on the Casual difficulty setting, Samus will suffer less damage while engaged in battle, allowing you to devote more of your attention to exploration rather than fighting.
